Definitions
- the present invention relates to yeast which highly accumulates glutamic acid in a cell, and food and drink which are formed using this yeast, such as alcoholic drinks, bread products, fermentative seasonings and yeast extracts. Further, the present invention relates to a process for producing food and drink using this yeast.
- yeast contains vitamins, amino acids, minerals and the like in appropriate proportions, and besides it, yeast is a natural substance Accordingly, in recent years, people have increasingly eaten yeast itself with no safety concerns or have used an extract obtained from the yeast as a seasoning. However, these products have an odor ascribable to yeast and are lacking palatable taste. Therefore, these products are not said to have a good taste.
- MSG sodium L-glutamate
- IMP sodium 5'-inosinate
- GMP sodium 5'-guanylate
- the present invention aims to improve a palatable taste and the like of food and drink which are formed using yeast accumulating higher amounts of L-glutamic acid.
- the present inventors have assiduously conducted investigations to solve the above-mentioned problems, and have consequently found that a large amount of glutamic acid is accumulated in cells of edible yeast and that food and drink having much improved taste such as a palatable taste and the like can be produced using the yeast.
- These findings have led to the completion of the present invention. Specifically, it has been found that a large amount of glutamic acid is formed in cells by imparting a resistance to a chemical compound which was selected out of 95 chemical compounds as a glutamic acid antagonistic growth inhibitor, and that more tasteful food and drink such as alcoholic drinks, bread products, fermentative seasonings, yeast extracts and the like can be produced using the yeast.
- the present invention relates to:
- Edible yeast is preferably a parent strain that undergoes mutation.
- yeasts belonging to the genus Saccharomyces Saccharomyces (Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Saccharomyces uvarum, Saccharomyces chevalieri, or Saccharomyces rosei)
- yeasts belonging to the genus Toluraspora Toluraspora delbrueckii
- yeasts belonging to the genus Kluyveromyces yeasts belonging to the genus Kluyveromyces (Kluyveromyces thermotolerance)
- yeasts belonging to the genus Pichia Pichia (Pichia membranaefaciens)
- yeasts belonging to the genus Candida Candida utilis).
- Saccharomyces cerevisiae is preferable. Beer yeast, wine yeast, sake yeast, whisky yeast, shochu (Japanese low-class distilled liquor) yeast and baker's yeast are especially preferable.
- Mutation-inducing strains can be formed by appropriately applying to the above-mentioned yeasts of parent strains a known mutation-inducing method such as a method of irradiating ultraviolet light or radiation or a method of bringing yeast into contact with a chemical agent such as N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine or ethyl methanesulfonate.
- a known mutation-inducing method such as a method of irradiating ultraviolet light or radiation or a method of bringing yeast into contact with a chemical agent such as N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine or ethyl methanesulfonate.
- yeast which exhibits a resistance to a glutamic acid antagonistic growth inhibitor is selected.
- the glutamic acid antagonistic growth inhibitor referred to in the present invention is an agent in which growth of yeast is inhibited but this inhibition is antagonistically released by the co-existence of glutamic acid.
- the present inventors have selected aspartic acid- ⁇ -hydroxamate and 4-fluorotryptophan out of 95 chemical compounds. Yeast which has underwent mutation is spread on a minimum medium containing this glutamic acid antagonistic growth inhibitor, colonies grown are separated, and mutants containing an increased amount of glutamic acid in the cells are selected from the colonies separated.
- the yeast which accumulates a large amount of glutamic acid in cells can be used in food and drink which are ordinarily produced using yeast, such as alcoholic drinks, bread products, fermentative seasonings and yeast extracts. Further, it is also possible to eat the yeast cells per se as preparations or to use the same as feed. Especially, in the case of the yeast extract, glutamic acid accumulated in cells enhances a palatable taste of the yeast extract. Accordingly, it is preferable to use the product of the present invention in the yeast extract.
- yeast in the present invention means that yeast which is ordinarily used in the production of food and drink is replaced with the yeast of the present invention and that the yeast of the present invention is used in addition to yeast which is ordinarily used in the production of food and drink.
- Food and drink can be produced by a conventional method.
- Alcoholic drinks can be produced by a method in which fruit of grapes, molasses, glucose or the like is directly fermented as a sugar source with yeast (single fermentation) or a method in which a starch of cereals such as rice, potatoes, buckwheat, corn and the like is saccharified with koji fungus, enzyme preparations or the like, and the alcohol fermentation is conducted in the presence of yeast (parallel fermentation).
- yeast parallel fermentation
- Bread can be made by a direct kneading method or an intermediate method.
- the former is a method in which all the raw materials are mixed from the beginning.
- the latter is a method in which yeast and water are first added to a part of a wheat flour to form an intermediate, and after the completion of the fermentation, the remaining raw materials are mixed therewith.
- a main starting material is a wheat flour and other starting materials are salt, fat, oil, water and yeast. Further, a sugar, a skim milk powder, a bread improving agent and the like are added as required. When using the above-obtained yeast as a starting material, a bread product having a strong, good taste can be obtained.
- the yeast extract can be produced by a conventional method. That is, yeast is aerobically incubated in an ordinary medium containing a carbon source, a nitrogen source, inorganic substances, amino acids, and vitamins at a temperature of from 15 to 37°C, preferably 30°C, with a pH of from 3.0 to 10.0, preferably 7.0, and the cells are collected.
- a carbon source in the medium include glucose, sucrose and molasses.
- the nitrogen source include ammonia, ammonium salts such as ammonium sulfate, ammonium carbonate and ammonium acetate, urea, other nitrogen compounds, a yeast extract, and a corn steep liquor.
- inorganic substances, amino acids and vitamins can be added thereto as required.
- the resulting cells are washed and suspended in water. Then, autolysis is conducted. In the autolysis, an autolysis accelerator or a cell wall lytic enzyme or the like may be added. The autolysis is carried out at a temperature of from 20 to 60°C, preferably 45°C, for from 10 to 40 hours, preferably 24 hours, with pH from 5.5 to 8.5, preferably 6.0. After the completion of the autolysis, the supernatant is concentrated through centrifugation, recovered as an extract, and dried through spray-drying.
- the yeast extract formed with yeast which accumulates glutamic acid in cells exhibits a strong palatable taste, improves a flavor, and increases a thick, full taste. Thus, it is quite a desirous yeast extract.
- a glutamic acid antagonistic growth inhibitor was screened by a paper disc method. That is, a paper disc having permeated therein 100 ⁇ l of a 100 ⁇ g/ml glutamic acid solution and a paper disc having permeated therein 100 ⁇ l of a 100 ⁇ g/ml drug solution were placed at a fixed interval on a minimum flat medium (made by Difco, containing 0.67 % bacto yeast nitrogen base, 2 % glucose and 2 % agar) on which a parent strain had been widely spread, and the incubation was conducted at 30°C for 3 days. When the drug inhibited the growth of the parent strain, an inhibition circle was formed around the paper disc, and the degree of the growth inhibition was measured depending on the size of the circle.
- methyl methanesulfonate was added to this suspension such that the final concentration reached 30 ⁇ m/ml.
- the mixture was allowed to stand at 30°C for 60 minutes, and the cells were collected through centrifugation.

- the incubation was conducted at 30°C for 42 hours. Then, 1 ml of the thus-obtained culture solution was centrifuged to separate the cells from the supernatant.
- the aspartic acid- ⁇ -hydroxamate resistant strain induced from Saccharomyces cerevisiae AJ4005 was named AJ14725.
